Here is the press release:
Allen, Texas – The defending ECHL Kelly Cup Champions added top-line skill today, announcing that the team has signed forward Greger Hanson to a contract for the 2015-2016 season.
“Greger exemplifies the style we play,” said Americans Head Coach Steve Martinson. He scores big goals, he’s skilled and physical, and forechecks with speed and tenacity.”
Greger Hanson has been a big part of the Allen Americans last two championships, one in the former Central Hockey League, and last season in the ECHL. Hanson had 29 points in 25 post-season games last season for Allen, helping to lead the Americans to a Kelly Cup title in seven games over the South Carolina Stingrays, while winning the playoffs MVP award.
